ahhhh... promos... ahhhh... like in less than 2 weeks?!?!?!?!
i started freaking out just now while doing econs on stupid Demand and Supply. seriously... i know all this stuff... its just that i'm very lazy to revise it... which shouldn't be the case... argh.
today was a trying day... a lot of ups and downs... first thing in the morning i realised that we were supposed to hand in our WRs for turn-it-in by recess or lunch and not during PW period later in the day... so i was forced to give up recess and skip E1 lesson... yes, majority of 1ahred was cramped up in computer lab 3.2 trying desperately to either do their conclusions or edit their WRs. there was tension in the air, no doubt about it... and everyone in the group was high strung... especially me... samuel looked extremely relaxed though... aiyarh... i just get very kan chiong over work larh... especially last minute work like this... pw... argh... just go away.
later in the day everything went smoothly. lectures, tutorials... actually the day passed quite quickly. and when we finally ended school, i went to study with ethel, ruth, amaria, samuel, gayle, jolene, debs... basically lots of ahred ppl. we had a cool time study. i really liked the fact that ethel and i did a little session with our Dad before we started. yeap. was reading verses from my quiet time and it really spoke to me.
exodus 33:14-17 ' The Lord replied,"My Presence will go with you, and i will give you rest. Then Moses said to him, "If your Presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here. How will anyone know that you are pelased with me and with your people unless you go with us? What else will distinguish me and your people from all the other people on the face of the earth?" And the Lord said to Moses, "I will do the very thing you have asked, because I am pleased with you and I know you by name." '
when i read it, it really spoke to me. even when i'm typing it out now, it is still speaking to me and i do believe that God gave me this verse for the purpose of the promos. i guess, the promos are the biggest obstacle that is before me (and possibly you reading this) and it ain't going to be an easy obstacle. mrs wilson was talking about preparing yourself for the trials so that you will be able to overcome them and not just look at the trials and think OH MY GOODNESS... this is so difficult. similarly, Moses needed help from God to overcome the biggest problem he was facing at the moment: leading the people of Israel. he was leading a herd of grumpy, complaining and complacent people who had constantly disregarded the goodness of God although it had been proven to them time and time again that God was faithful to them and would bring them safely to the Promise land from Egypt. God's assurance to Moses was that He would always be with him and never leave him and in Him, Moses would never be tired but would be able to have peace. yet, Moses wanted to further affirm God's commitment and covenant with him and the people of Israel and God affirmed and assured him and established His covenant with Moses once again.
i guess the knowledge that God is going to be there for us always comforts me a lot. to know that when i am weak He is strong and i can count on Him. to know that i am His chosen people and set apart for God is a feeling that no words can be used to describe. to know that i am His PRINCESS and he will continually watch over me even through my promos and my everyday revision is enough for me. Moses wanted God to say to him 'HEY!!! i'm here for you always!!!' and God did explicitly. and today while reading the verses, it spoke to me explicitly too. that even as God was there for Moses his servant, what more His PRINCESS and baby girl whom He has been faithful to all her life. to know that His goodness is everlasting and His faithfulness endures forever is more than just comforting. its an awesome feeling... a feeling that will make you wanna jump for joy!!! :)
i was singing 'Now that you're near' on the road to the mrt station with beatrice. and it really described how i was feeling at that time and even now.
Hold me in Your arms, never let me go I wanna spend eternity with You And now that You're near, everything is different Everything's so different, Lord I know i'm not the same My life You've changed I wanna be with You I wanna be with You
amen.
all right, i gotta go bathe and do lit now...
toodles.
